Although Li Shimin was hiding in Da'an Palace to watch the drama unfold, he could not escape the commotion in Ganlu Hall.
Upon learning that Sizi was organizing craftsmen to install a giant glass lamp in his Ganlu Palace, the old man was overjoyed.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the eldest grandson has forgotten you. It's just that the largest, best, and most exquisite glass lamp prepared for you takes too much time to arrive, which is why it hasn't been delivered to you yet!"
"Yeah?"
"I don't believe this grandson has any conscience!"
"And that little girl, Sizi, despite how much I dote on her, she's even forgotten about her own father!"
"Your Majesty, shall we go back and take a look?"
"have a look?"
"Prepare the carriage and return to the palace!"
When Li Shimin returned to Ganlu Hall, the giant chandelier had just been assembled and was being tested for ignition.
Although the chandelier wasn't lit yet, its enormous and luxurious design still captivated Li Er.
"pretty!"
"Such magnificent lamps are worthy of the grandeur of the Ganlu Hall!"
When Si Zi saw that his father had finally shown himself, he immediately stepped forward with a stern face and bowed.
"Daughter greets Father!"
"Your Highness, is this lamp a gift for me?"
"yes!"
"Preparations for this item began long ago, but its manufacture was quite laborious, and it was only completed today!"
"Yeah?"
"Could it be that they heard Qujiang Pool was closed, so they rushed to make it overnight?"
Upon hearing this, Sizi rolled his eyes at Li Shimin.
"Father, you're really good at wronging people. Look at the style of this chandelier, does it look like it could be made in a day or two?"
"Actually, your eldest grandson originally made four cups, intending to finish them all before sending them to you, but since you're so petty, I can only bring one over for you to see first, lest you continue to block Qujiang Pool!"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin chuckled awkwardly and then addressed the commander of the Imperial Guards outside the door.
"Lift the blockade on Qujiang Pool!"
"promise!"
"Daughter, can you turn on the lamp now?"
"snort!"
Although the little rhinoceros's mouth was so pouty it could hang an oil bottle, it still ordered people to light lamps.
Several craftsmen turned the winch, lowered the chandelier, lit the candles on it one by one with tinder, and then hoisted the chandelier back up.
Li Er looked at the huge chandelier above the Ganlu Hall, which was shining brightly, and finally a happy smile appeared on his face.
"It's like a magnificent scene from a dragon palace!"
"Brilliant as the Milky Way!"
"Such a brilliant and bright light is what I should be using, hahaha!"
Just as Li Shimin was laughing triumphantly, a little eunuch rushed over.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! Princess Gaoyang has been captured!"
"What?"
"Who dares to be so bold as to bully my Princess Gaoyang!"
"It's said he's a man from Xianyang County..."
"Oh, then it's alright..."
